A collection of various vintage decorative and household objects featuring a three-panel folding table screen?. The screen depicts a continuous scene of figures in a traditional Chinese architectural and garden setting, rendered in a style reminiscent of classical silk paintings with visible Chinese characters in the central panel. The group includes several wooden items: three ribbed butter paddles with turned handles; a slatted wooden toast rack; a turned wood bowl; a shoe tree with a metal adjustment mechanism; a pear-shaped wooden ornament; and an assortment of decorative wooden boxes. One box features inlaid floral brass? motifs, while another displays a deep-relief carved floral design. Also present are two volumes of The Strand magazine bound in green and brown cloth, a circular tin decorated with a painted orange rose, and a turned wooden pot with a carved leaf pattern. A dark-stained ashtray with an integrated white metal horse-and-carriage ornament is also included. A circular yellow adhesive label on the base of the carved wooden pot reads 2488.
